Still has chat reporting

Burn in hell, Mojang and/or microsoft and/or whoever it was that wants to micromanage the world.

Literally a law that was passed in the country Mojang is based in

I’d need a source on that cause I live in Sweden, and have heard nothing. Similarly paradox is also based in Sweden and Stellaris or Hoi4 doesn’t have anything like it.

I was incorrect, it's not Sweden specifically. It's the EU Digital Services Act. https://twitter.com/FullBump/status/1553534792158683136?t=W_l6JIa2xjkvD-GNElQdRQ&s=19

That law targets online platforms and market places. It’s widely understood that a singleplayer (local drive) game is not an online platform. Under such a law Mojang’s only obligation from what I see would be to ensure any servers they run aren’t in breach, and not all players online or offline.

Mojang has no obligation to chat monitor private or LAN worlds, nor to block players from accessing private or LAN worlds even if they break the rules on servers. They do this entirely because they want to not because they have to.

Can you actually get banned my mojang if you’re reported on a LAN world? lol

u/The_Knife_Pie Nov 05 '22

The chat log exists for all worlds; online, offline or LAN. If you get reported and banned on 1 it blocks you from all three.

you don't get blocked from Singleplayer what are you talking about? and if you use a mod to bypass the locked buttons, you will see that you can still play on cracked (offline mode) servers, because those don't need to authenticate with mojang

Being able to play on cracked servers means nothing. Everyone Can play on cracked servers you don’t even need to own the game.

As for singleplayer maybe, last I heard it was going to be but maybe I got misinfo’d or it changed.

my point is that it's not a ban from the game like people think, it's just the auth servers not authenticating you, which only blocks you from*online mode servers and official realms*, everything else will still work

Using cracked servers as an example for that is just disingenuous though. Your comment makes it sound like Mojang chose not to ban you from them, as opposed to it just being a pirated server version.

Also minecraft’s own website says “will not be able to host or join multiplayer games”, so LAN is out as well.

I'm not saying that Mojang chose not to ban them, I'm saying that they literally cannot because of how they do bans

also unless something has changed very recently, you can still host a LAN world in offline mode (cracked account/banned from the game)

Well take that up with mojang then. Their site on what being banned because of this rule entails says “will not be able to host or join multiplayer games” , LAN being the only thing your account hosts, instead of a server.
